Re: Microsoft's plans to kill open source: TCPA
Top posting so this can be clearly read.
I'm interested in what TCPA is but the web site mentioned is very poorly written.
There is no clear explanation of what TCPA is and why it should be opposed
on the main page.
Examination of the web site gave me no information about TCPA at all.
It's a good canditate for the excellent book "Web Sites that Suck".
The only thing I saw is the need to reconfigure my email program - I'm not going to do that
without a really good reason.
Somebody needs to radically change the site.
In the meantime, can anyone please tell me what this TCPA is all about?
